Skycrest Neighborhood Back to School Block Party
Our church is hosting a back-to-school block party on Saturday, August 9th from 10:00 am to 1:00 pm for the Skycrest neighborhood. We'll be distributing free backpacks filled with school supplies for local children and families. We're transforming this Block Party into a broader community celebration, and we're inviting local organizations, businesses, and service providers to set up informational booths to connect directly with families in our neighborhood.
Our Vacation Bible School kids will be stuffing the backpacks as a service project, and we are excited for the opportunity to bring families and community together.

Scripture
“9 “I have loved you even as the Father has loved me. Remain in my love. 10 When you obey my commandments, you remain in my love, just as I obey my Father’s commandments and remain in his love. 11 I have told you these things so that you will be filled with my joy. Yes, your joy will overflow! 12 This is my commandment: Love each other in the same way I have loved you. 13 There is no greater love than to lay down one’s life for one’s friends. 14 You are my friends if you do what I command. 15 I no longer call you slaves, because a master doesn’t confide in his slaves. Now you are my friends, since I have told you everything the Father told me.
